Newly listed junior explorer Australian Critical Minerals (ASX:ACM) has begun a mapping and sampling program at its Cooletha Lithium Project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. 

The company says this program will evaluate the ‘high-priority’ target area over an initial 10km of the 30km strike of outcropping pegmatite swarms.
